Which has a maximum value kinetic friction or static friction?
Static Friction, since it is limited to the weight and surface area of the object in question.
What does a coefficient of friction of 1.0 or greater mean?
It means that the maximum force of friction is greater than the weight of the object.
What is the maximum amount of mechanical energy that can be converted to heat?
Why should there be a maximum? If there is friction, ALL the mechanical energy will eventually be converted to heat.
What factors influence frictional force?
Friction is a force acting in opposition to the net force on an object. As such it will always take on the same magnitude and the opposite direction to the net force, constantly adjusting itself - up to a certain maximum. The maximum force that friction can exert to impede motion is determined by two factors: * the coefficient of friction; a constant assigned to the specific combination of the two surfaces in contact. * the normal reaction force; the force pushing the surfaces together. Multiplying these two together gives friction's maximum value. If an object is already moving, friction continues to exert the maximum force that it can, and a slightly adjusted 'kinetic friction coefficient' is used to determine its magnitude. Friction coefficients can be slightly affected in turn by further factors, such as temperature.
The coefficient of static friction between the tires of a car a dry road is 62 the mass of the car is 1500 kg what maximum force is obtainable?
Frictional force, F = coefficient of friction, u x normal reaction, R Maximum normal reaction = Weight => Maximum frictional force = 62 x 9.8 x 1500 = 911400 N
What is friction and what is meant by maximum friction?
Friction is a force that opposes motion. Maximum friction is the?æ force that must be overcome in order for a body to start moving.?æ Maximum friction is equal to the?æ product of normal force and coefficient of the friction.
What is the maximum value of static friction?
one
Which has a maximum value kinetic friction or static friction?
Static Friction, since it is limited to the weight and surface area of the object in question.
What object does make the biggest friction?
Different substances produce different amounts of friction. But generally, rough surfaces produce the maximum friction.
What does a coefficient of friction of 1.0 or greater mean?
It means that the maximum force of friction is greater than the weight of the object.
What is the maximun coefficient of friction between two surfaces?
friction is the resisting force which oppose the relative motion of two body.cofficient of friction is the ratio of frictional force and normal force of body on surface.thus maximum cofficient of friction defiend as ratio of maximum frictional force or minimum normal force on the surface.
The maximum torque transmitted by a single friction clutch plate depends on what factors?
The outer diameter of the friction lining, the inner diameter of the friction lining, the coefficient of friction between the plates, the number of friction plates ( in this case 2), the surface pressure acting on the friction plates
What is the you of friction you observe when you push on a piece of furniture that you cannot move?
that would be static friction. Static friction is the maximum amount of force that you can apply to an object before it moves. hope this helped!
What is the maximum amount of mechanical energy that can be converted to heat?
Why should there be a maximum? If there is friction, ALL the mechanical energy will eventually be converted to heat.
What is limiting value of friction?
The maximum friction that can be generated between two static surfaces in contact with each other. Once a force applied to the two surfaces exceeds the limiting friction, motion will occur. For two dry surfaces, the limiting friction is a product of the normal reaction force and the coefficient of limiting friction.

In what way is friction useful to a skydiver?
Friction (from air resistance) stops them from falling faster and faster continually - instead they reach a maximum velocity and stay at that speed until they pull their parachute. Friction prevents them from plummeting to their death.
